      @@MauzyrockRC thanks for the support my man, very kind!
      Glad your getting somthing out of the channel, some like the Bashing🚀🚀😎👍, some like the Installs and technical stuff, I just put it all out there and hope y'all enjoy.
      For cst it depends on the manufacturer if they rate it at cst or not as it's just a measure of thickness typically used for shock oil but can all be rated for diff oil, then you will see 50k and 50wt used and they are different as well. It can be confusing so I just Google CST to Wt conversations table or somthing like that and use that for a refrence for myself so I don't screw it up😂 wish the manufacturers would settle on one standard 😡
      Typically wt refers to the lighter stuff, K (thousand) or M (million) refers to the thicker, CST can be used to rate any of it👍
      As I did here I accidentally grabbed 50 and 30wt instead of 50/30k realized it after I shot the video so decided to correct it with 🔸Comments 🔸
      Because the info was correct, only difference with technique is that with 50k you would have to take the gears out first, fill it a bit, drop the gears in, top it off etc, you would not be advised to just poor it in.....too thick and easy air bubbles. I will probably redo this video with the LSD diffs as well because they are a WHOLE OTHER animal 🙄
      Hope the video helps.. See ya round brother

      No brother.... Just make sure to take the spider gears out and don't just poor it in like I did in the video, I accidentally grabbed 30 and 50wt shock oils as opposed to 30k/50k diff fluids so they were so thin I could just poor it, but 50k you gotta take the spider gears out for proper filling. I mention this in the description about the wrong diff fluids used. I should really redo the whole video maybe someday.... My production is way better now.

    Hey, great video. I changed to 500k recently in my center diff and after only a few runs, the gears started grinding. I tore it down and discovered the shims were badly scored and worn thin. I had cleaned all with brake cleaner and didn't think about how the thick fluid was going to (or wasn't) going to get between the parts to lubricate them. Obviously it didn't. This time, I put a dot of Amsoil racing grease on each shim surface before installing them, them added the fluid. I put 2 shims on each output shift behind the pin to tighten up the slop in the gears and keep them snug against the planetary gears. I think the shims in the planetary gears should be an even number to keep them perfectly simetrical, plus, they need to ride slightly outside the diameter of the output gear for the mesh to be correct. Thanks

    • @3SonsRC
      @3SonsRC  4 года назад +1

      Thanks buddy,
      You may have overshimmed it causing it to bind a bit, the diff oil should get to the shims no matter what, but if the whole diff is too tight it can cause the issues you mentioned.
      You have to go by feel, two shims behind each is likely too much for any diff?? I like to use one eash of the Mugen ones because they are thicker than stock and it's nice to have one behind each and be simetrical like you said, but more importantly yiu should be able to tighten the diff all the way till the screws stop and then still be able to turn it by hand WITHOUT feeling binding or the gears grinding on themselves hard. You should just barely be able to feel, the gears touching and moving within themselves. It is hard to turn or there stiff, you may have too many shims. Not every diff is the same. If it's too tight, pull out some shims, and extra shims behind the planitary can definitely cause issues, maybe one thin one or the stock arrma one is fine, again you gotta go by feel. It should be smooth and not catch or feel too "notchey" when all the screws are tight. Turn it in yiur hand to feel after to see. Also v4 and v5 diffs are VERY good with shimming, I mostly just leave them stock and swap oil... Shimming is more necessary with v3 and prior diffs
      My 2 cents

    • @darrylsjodin3962
      @darrylsjodin3962 4 года назад

      Thanks for your reply. Good advice. FYI, when I changed the diff fluid to 500,000, I only cleaned everything and left all of the factory shims in place, one behind each planetary gear and one behind each output gear. They were dry and the thick lube didn't get between them because the shim wore right into the back of each planetary gear! Really smooth machined surfaces have a surface tension and can prevent lube from getting between them. I think that's what happened. I replaced all of the gears and shims and left the planetary gear shims factory at 1 a piece. I only added a 2nd thin one to the output shafts.They still had some play and the gears were smooth with no notchy-ness. 😊 thanks

    • @3SonsRC
      @3SonsRC  4 года назад +1

      Ok buddy, sounds like you were right then, I hadn't realized you cleaned them and they were really dry had no oil at all on them, I guess that could happen. Sorry buddy. That sucks. Diffs are tricky but once you got them down "less" issues, but things can still go wrong

    Great diff maintenance and shimming video 👍 The V1 diffs needed the extra internal shims. Somewhere around V3 Arrma improved the tolerances and you can get away without the extra spider gear shims 👍

    • @3SonsRC
      @3SonsRC  4 года назад +2

      Agreed sir, with v4 diffs its more about external shims but those are usually correct too, some like to replace the stock shim under the planitary with the bigger mugen one, and that's cool if its not too tight. With v3 they wee better shimmed, but v4 they added the planitary shims so somtimes it's just a simple fluid swap like I did here🎯

      That sounds good for the Diff fluids though I like 500k in the center, but 300 is good. Internal shimming is almost never necessary with the v4 and v5 diffs, maybe just an outer shim by the bearing depending on how much play there is between the diff and the bulkhead sliding left and right.

      Sup buddy and welcome to the hobby, hope your enjoying the channel.
      You don't really need to change the oil at all really so long as they are not leaking or broken gears inside but yoy will know that really quickly 😱. So maybe check on them every few months depending on how often you run them, see if there still full.
      Before I put them in the truck I sit them for 15 minute intervals different angles and watch for leaking before I put them in the truck.
      I would say wouldn't be a bad idea once a year to take all your diffs out and check them out make sure they're full as some type of maintenance schedule👍

    • @3SonsRC
      @3SonsRC  2 года назад +2

      Truggy and monster truggy is usually lighter in the rear so the rear and slides over in turns and helps steering.... Less push. Thicker in the back than front does the opposite, truck rear does not come around as easy harder to steer less predictable more Monster Truck wild. For better handling go lighter in the back, I honestly don't know the advantages of lighter in the front than rear.... Most don't run like that

Thicker in the center will help if you are still bleeding too much power to the front end (want more wheelie and backflip go thicker center) .... You will see it on launch if your fronts are ballooning really bad and rears are planted and not ballooning. Though some ballooning is expected. So while the norm might be 50/500/30k with the LSD's is definitely fine to drop that a bit so the LSD's can do there work. So I think you should run what ya got and see if you like it... Might be perfect
      See ya round brother

    So how would I know if my diffs need to rebuilt or shimmed right from the manufacture on my 6S EXB? I am torn here and just trying to figure out what I actually need to do if anything. Since I seen a lot of videos and posts out there just not sure what is current these days or if the issue has kind of been resolved.

    • @3SonsRC
      @3SonsRC  3 года назад +3

      They won't need a rebuild for sure, v4 and later diffs don't need internal shimming or much at all. Wouldn't hurt to open them up to see if they are low on diff fluid. But you would not be the least responsible person to just bash it now and check later 🤣😂

    Hi! Love you videos. Im a noob in this world of hobby grade rc’s. I’ve done some research already and watched a bunch of yt vids and decided to get a kraton 6s v5 as my first car. Do you recommend to reshim the diffs of a brand new k6 v5 along with changing diff fluids? Im at about below average skill in doing my motorcycle tranny and some mechanical jobs in cars. But im a bit hesitant to reshim a bnew k6 out of the box being a newbie and no available parts nearby. Would love to know what you think. Thanks!

    • @3SonsRC
      @3SonsRC  3 года назад +2

      Thanks for stopping by and I'm glad your enjoying the channel.
      You won't need to reshim the diffs of a v4 or newer diff as there usually spot on, maybe check the external shims that I touched on but don't make it too tight, but should be good good from factory BUT DO check fluid levels and adjust to defferemt if you want.
      Somtimes diffs loosen up over time so not a bad idea to check on them after 6 months to see if internally/externally they are too loose.... But much of this still applies for knowledge sake.
      And fear not brother I think you 1:1 Auto mechanics knowledge will help a lot!

      To be fair I have no street Bashers so I haven't looked I to what's preferred for those. In Off Road Bashers a common setup is 50k front, 300-500k center, 10-30k rear. I imagine street Bashers would be different though for street handling and straight line performance preferred. I would hop on the Facebook forums for Arrma Street Bashers and do a search.... I'm sure plenty of dudes have chimed in. Super Appreciate your time, hope the video helped and hope you're enjoying the channel, see ya round brother.

    • @3SonsRC
      @3SonsRC  3 года назад +1

      Thanks for stopping by and excellent question. If your meaning the tiny grub screw on the center diff case that holds the spider gears, the plug hole to access the pin under the sun gear,.... Just flush to the outside of the plastic cup.
      If your talking about the grub screw that holds the pinion on the motor shaft, as tight as you can crank it with red loctite my preferred.... But don't use 110% of your strength and strip the screw... With proper MIP tools (not Allen key) you should be able to get it tight. Is that what you were asking?

    • @3SonsRC
      @3SonsRC  4 года назад +2

      Sorry I missed this question bud,
      Most arrma 6s trucks come with the standard front/center/rear 10k/100k/10k
      I usually go 50/500/30...but that is for bashing and tricks... Not the same as a SCT, you would want to likely go thinner on all those compared to my setup. I would reach out on the Arrma Facebook group because I don't have a Mojave... Though I really want one.
      Arrma sets up the diffs for general bashing and getting started.... As you get better with the truck you will want to adjust based on your driving style and desires.

      I know some of the diff tips here may apply, but the weight of the oils reccomended for your 1/10 scale Losi would definitely be different than the 1/8 scale MT basher this went in.

    Also when you take out the diffs, what is that grease that is coating the whole outside? I dont have anything to re-grease it so trying to find out what I need to get so I can put the diffs back in once I get them filled with diff fluid.
    Do you think 20K, 200K, 20K in my 6S rig would be good for the diffs?

    • @3SonsRC
      @3SonsRC  3 года назад +1

      For the Outside diffs I use Lukas Red N Tacky... Never mess with that Hobby Store grease as it's too expensive.
      I usually run 50/500/30k F/C/R in most my 6s rigs. But with LSD's like are in the EXB 200-300 is the most ya want to go in the center, and maybe just 30k up front. You can 100% just run it as is and see if you like the LSD feel.
      It's a preference thing but with the LSD's I have in my Mojave I just run it stock

    • @3SonsRC
      @3SonsRC  3 года назад +1

      @@DonnieKluck I'm no LSD expert but thicker fluid will not stop the effect unless your going 1mill (not reccomended) but will lesten the transfer for power from front rmto rear (center diff) helping with ballooning etc, or L/R effecting the slide into turn and pulling out that's why in the rear you don't go too thick or your car will SUCK at turning. 20-30 is fun in the rear...and 20 Likley perfect with LSD in the rear depending on preference. So thicker does kit stop LSD, but you don't want to go as thick as standard diffs if you do have LSD's

    • @3SonsRC
      @3SonsRC  3 года назад +1

      A TON of difference. With is more of a shock oil measure, K is for diffs TYPICALLY 😎👍
      50wt will be like a oil.... Where as 50k will be thick like BBQ sauce 😱😂🤣
      Huge difference in performance.
      500k will be like thick glue consistency etc😜
      Flip those weights.
      Put the thicker in the front and lighter in the back so the rear end will come around.... Thicker and it won't run as well as it shifts traction. I go f/c/r 50/500/30k and somtimes 300k in the center depending on the rig.
      For a Kaiju I would try 30/300/15?? But I don't own one but that's my guess based on weight, size, and wheelbase 😊😉
